Aloha Means Hello and Goodbye

And so it is, 'Hello' to The CT and a hearty 'goodbye' to the old WTXX as you knew it. I could sit here for hours and bore the living crap out of you all with marketing speak and reasons why the new version of this TV station will be miles above and beyond the old version but I'm a 'seeing is believing' type of guy so you will all have to take my word: see it and believe it.

The changes to the station will be gradual, eventually drastic, but we've already done some pretty cool stuff. My favorite so far, hands down, is our "Seen On The Scene" segments we do. So, for those who haven't seen them yet, they are basically promotional spots that air all throughout the day highlighting cool places/events we go to. There have been some cool ones so far too - The Mohegan Sun Winefest, Liquid Lounge @ The CT Science Center, and a damn pool party in the middle of the coldest week of the Winter just to name a few. If you get a chance check out the Photos and Videos of some of the events we've had the privilege of covering so far. (There is one photo gallery in particular that I'm fond of, but I'll let you take a guess at which one it is...) Also a hearty thanks to all the venues and sponsors that have hosted us thus far. You guys have been awesome and we appreciate the support. For those venues and sponsors who haven't hosted us yet...what the hell are you waiting for?

Seriously though, if you live in Connecticut it's because of one of two reasons: 1) You love it here or 2) you grew up here and are too scared to leave. I'd like to think that you are all part of the first group and that's who this blog is for. (For the second group, my advice would be to go travel the world now before you get cold feet again. Then when you come back, realize how awesome CT actually is and join the first group of people. We'll wait here for you. Go on, shoo.) So for those of us who love CT keep your eyes on this blog because I'll have all the info you need on the events coming up worth attending, reasons why you should have attended the last event we were at and enough entertainment info to make you avoid having to watch TMZ ever, ever again. (You're welcome!)

So, my party people, are you ready to Get Around with Chet? I hope so because it's going to be one helluva ride and I'd hate for you to miss out...

Oh, and one last shameless plug before I go. If you haven't already, go find us and friend us on Facebook and Twitter. Thanks!

Chet
